Paul wrote and composed one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard! It's called "Only For A Moment." The word were written over the space of the year after he came home from his mission. The words and music seemed so power at the time... and have gained deeper inspired meanings as time has passed. The following are the lyrics... deep, beautiful, inspired and spiritually probing. Enjoy!

- Only For A Moment -

Looking through the darkness, out across the sea,
I can only wonder if your looking for me,
oh to be near you... nothing better. If I could hear you...
Only for a moment.

Standing in the starlight, it all seems so clear...
but then in the distance, a brighter light appears.
I wish this moment, could last forever.
If I could hold it, only for a moment.

Always before and always again,
Maybe I'll go or get left behind.
Searching and burning, the beams they are piercing.
The darkness the deep night, the shadows beyond my sight...

As the light approaches, thing not as they seem.
I begin to wonder... if it was all a dream.
Things that I know that seem so certain...
Falling apart as Only for a moment.
Only for a moment...
